For orient and decide, no such limits. These are mental processes. Their analogs: algorithms, analytics, patterns, heuristics, models, etc.

If you orient and decide fast enough, then your action will change the competitive environment before the adversary has decided what to do. They will be drawing conclusions and acting on a model of the past, instead of the present. With each iteration, you move further ahead in time. You can literally..
